Mayhem. Absolute mayhem. After Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson coughed up a fumble to Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Devin White, Houston got the ball again.
Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston threw his third interception of the first half. He tried to connect with wide receiver Breshad Perriman on a post route. However, the veteran cornerback Johnathan Joseph made sure they didn’t connect.
Joseph read the route and came down with the interception. In doing so, he joined Bradley Roby and Justin Reid as Texans to pick-off Winston in the first half of the absurd Saturday game. Watch below.

Unfortunately, the Texans were not able to get their offense going after the interception. Deshaun Watson and Co. led a quick three-and-out for the offense, with the drive capped off by a 55-yard punt by Bryan Anger.
It’s fair to say that the Saturday game in Tampa Bay is not without its fair share of madness.
